Do you want me to check the translation of that page?

Not. This is the correct in-game building data for an italian-speaking reader of your documentation

[Localization of web page]

@Angelica_B It's problematic to create a wiki page here. Created on github.
https://nwtour.github.io/compare-0ad/it.html

Data taken from game settings, translation from transifex.
I think you can add a link to your translation - for those who want to know the differences in factions

let me know which pages do you want for translation and I ll copy them for you

Can I have a page too

Thanks

Should I simply omit it?

Yes, I suggest just skipping the table comparing buildings and units (do not waste time on translation).
If you translate nothing bad happens, the data will simply become outdated over time

Within a few days I will try to suggest the correct way to automatically create it right away in Italian

I marked with a number "2" parts that quickly become obsolete

translating the Strategy Guide is pointless

There are two parts - one is a literary text, the second is a structured part with numbers from the game. It makes no sense to translate only the second. Free text will be relevant for a long time.

Translate long blocks of text, and I'll try to write a converter to the wiki format that will generate a table with numbers from the game

I would like to translate this one: https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/Strategy_Guide

Translate buildings/units cost its Sisyphean
All this data is translated within the game and the balance can change at any time.
I can make an analog http://s06eye.co.uk/0ad/techtree-v2/ just picking up on Italian localization and comparing between factions. Then only literary text remains to be translated.
Otherwise, your work may become obsolete by the end of the work.

cant there be a option like LOW RAM MODE?

I have a low-spec computer. I am slowly exploring options for minimizing memory.
First, create a minimalistic map for yourself in Atlas. This will immediately halve memory consumption.

By the way is it correct that if I try to get mods and so from the Internet I only get error messages in the Mod Window before the game?

Do not pay attention. There, a buggy code was added for x86/unix - it defines a different number of logical cores on processors (on Intel processors without hypertrading), depending on random situations. Compiler switches, code blocks - everything can be enabled/disabled by this window.

There the stat() starts. Here are the options when -1 is returned https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/stat.html

Try to start the game from strace: strace -o debug.txt -f -s 1000 /usr/games/pyrogenesis
and attach the output: grep -E '(open|stat)' debug.txt

[mod map_backward_capability]

mod that provides backward compatibility for map objects.

How it works: In the history of the repository, we find all the renamed files (xml,png,dae,dds) and copy them to a mod directory with the current contents but the old name. Old maps should display objects instead of errors in the js-console.

[[POLL] Corpse Removal Option]

Since it works on video, it's very cool. Perhaps you should only exclude unique units from the list - their death is important for gameplay

[[POLL] Corpse Removal Option]

10 hours ago, Stan` said:

while others feel like we shouldn't have intermediate values of the option because it makes the game inconsistent

I see the creation of a mod here (for example "wildfiregames") - a director's vision. Options that override all custom options.

As soon as the user disables this mod (activated by default for new users), all customizations in the game are opened for him.

The mod will only contain hardcoded configuration values - the game will be fully functional without it.

This will close a lot of discussions about what is the author's vision and what is the function of the engine.

For example, I have the option view.rotate.x.max = "90". From the point of view of the engine, this is the correct decision by default, from the point of view of game-design, it is wrong. So in the engine it will be possible to make 90, and in the mod "wildfiregames" - 60 (0ad is not a 2D game)

[Does A24 Lag Less?]

>I have a patch for it D2936. But I need profiling data to show it's an improvement

But how to do it? On my low-spec system, fps is completely correlated with the number of units in the screen scope. An excellent patch may show worse results depending on the player's camera movements (Replay does not remember the position of the camera).

Some ideas:

• Option to disable rendering of corpses and projectiles on the ground. Not rendering possibly thousands of objects likely helps quite a lot.

I commented out in my local copy:
//this.CreateDeathSpawnedEntity () in binaries/data/mods/public/simulation/components/Health.js
and replaced <DeathType>corse</DeathType> with <DeathType>vanish</DeathType>
in binaries/data/mods/public/simulation/templates/template_unit.xml

It became faster and more convenient to play without a heap of corpses, blood and ruins

I think it would be a good idea to make it a config option.

• Use of vulkan instead of opengl.

IMHO Vulkan only benefits engine developers. Allowing to optimize autogenerated code. In 0 A.D. is hardcoded GL calls - nothing to optimize.
We'll just get compatibility problems without any performance gain

I haven't studied it deeply yet. Playing with the bot -> Save -> Exit -> Load -> Win -> Press Replay. It will turn out to be an invalid Replay (the bot is playing, but the player's units are just standing)
